The library provides an ever increasing range of resources to support students and staff in their learning and recreational reading. The library focuses on the development of information literacy by providing access to print and non print resources. Our operational philosophy is
"Macquarie Fields High School Library is more than just 4 walls; it is the world, 24 hours a day, seven days a week."
Library hours are 8.00 am to 3:20pm. The student id card issued in year 7 and then renewed in years 9 and 11 also serve as the student borrowing card, however, if replacement cards are required a cost of $10.00 will be incurred.
To meet the 21st Century information needs of our school community, the library catalogue and many parts of the digital library collection can be accessed via our online catalogue known as Oliver. Oliver is accessed through the Department of Education Student Portal
Check out this video by student ambassador Ben on how to search for books in Oliver and add them to the Premier's Reading Challenge.
